Our 5 Favourite Apps That Will Make Your Life Easier

2016 was an absolutely incredible year for the Vouchify team; we launched our app to the market and have been delighted with the response over the first few months.

Yet, if you blinked, you missed it: 2016 rushed by with all of us thinking ‘where did the time go?’

We at Vouchify know what it’s like to work round the clock and understand better than most it can prove difficult to stop for a minute and pursue a work/life balance.

Thankfully, as technology progresses, so do a multitude of apps designed to help you maximise productivity and make life easier. Read on to discover some of the latest apps on the market that will help you score some well-deserved ‘me’ time at the end of the day.

ScribblePost

Introducing ScribblePost, the world’s first Productivity Network. ScribblePost acts as a digital notepad with a twist. It let’s you tag your notes, projects and emails according to schedule, priority, workflow and assignment. Not sure what we mean? Let’s say, for example, that you need to organise Sally’s birthday. On the app, scribble down project ‘birthday party’ and then tag it as #today (schedule), #critical (priority), #doing now (workflow) and #assigned (assignment) to share the project @Sally’s dad – even if he doesn’t have ScribblePost!

Sound intriguing? We think it’s #essential! Check out more information on ScribblePost today.

Google Photos

Picture this (pardon the pun): You’re at a wedding and you want to show your friend photos of your most recent holiday – but you can’t find them amongst the myriad of images you have on your phone. With Google Photos, all you have to do is type ‘holiday’ or ‘Thailand’ into the search bar to find all pictures related to your vacation.

Yep, that’s right – Google Photos has created a searchable technology that automatically tags people and uses image recognition to finds pictures.

The app is free, syncs across devices and has unlimited storage. Perfect if you’re all about capturing life’s most treasured memories.

Crash Plan

Have you ever experienced a computer crash? No? Good. You never want to. Make sure you never do by using the Crash Plan app. Crash Plan is an innovative utility that allows you to back up your computer, simply by downloading the app to another computer.

Crash Plan takes care of your data by continually checking its secure and encrypted for only you to see. Set it and forget it!

LastPass

Never click the ‘forgot password’ button again with the LastPass app. This app secures your passwords and usernames, helps you generate stronger passwords, and you can access your login details across multiple devices using a master password or TouchID. The best part is the app is free! We love it, and considering that we use it on a daily basis, we’re happy to vouch for LastPass in full confidence!
